Ani-May on Crunchyroll: Weekly New Releases Featuring Corpse Party, Crayon Shin-chan

Crunchyroll's Ani-May celebration is just around the corner, bringing a wave of excitement for fans of cult Japanese releases. The Crunchyroll Game Vault is set to expand its offerings with a new release added to the service every week throughout May. The festivities kick off on April 30th with the launch of the Square Enix classic, Valkyrie Profile: Lenneth. This enhanced version of the original game invites players to embody the spirit guardian Lenneth as she recruits fallen heroes for the climactic battle of Ragnarok, set in a world inspired by Norse mythology.

But the excitement doesn't stop there. Throughout May, the Crunchyroll Game Vault will offer a diverse lineup of games to suit different tastes. Fans of horror can dive into the cult-classic RPG Corpse Party, while those who enjoy slice-of-life adventures can look forward to Shin Chan: Shiro and the Coal Town. Additionally, the survival horror game White Day will make its debut on mobile platforms, adding to the variety of experiences available.

There are even more releases planned that we haven't mentioned yet, so be sure to keep an eye on the Crunchyroll Game Vault for the full lineup. While other streaming services like Netflix have faced challenges in capturing the gaming audience, Crunchyroll has successfully carved out a niche for Eastern imports that appeal to a cult-appreciating audience.

With a library boasting over 50 releases, Crunchyroll Game Vault is on track for further growth.
